As part of the Teen Book Scene promotional tour for Katherine Grace Bond's The Summer of No Regrets, I have a few characters from the book stop by to chat on the blog today! Please welcome Brigitta, Luke, Mallory, Webster, and Natalie.

What is one thing people don't know about you?

Brigitta:When I was
little I used to think I was a changeling.

Luke:When I can’t sleep, I
sometimes sketch, but I’m really terrible, so I hide them.

What is your
ideal summer?

Mallory:Working in a teen center, helping troubled kids.

Webster:Sharing my expertise with a promising undergraduate in an
off-campus setting.

What do you think will happen once summer is over?

Natalie:I’ve signed up for an acting class at Studio East; there’s a
guy there who looks EXACTLY like Logan Lerman.

What is one memory of
your summer that you will always remember?

Luke:The Grays Harbor
Lighthouse.

What would you like to forget?

Luke:Recycle bins.

How has
the summer changed you?

Brigitta:I say what I think now—even if it may
make someone mad. But I also think about what I’m saying.

Thanks to all of you for stopping by! Now I'm curious as to what happened at the lighthouse and why the recycling bin is an issue. Looking forward to "meeting" you soon when I read the book!

The day Brigitta
accidentally flings herself into the lap of a guy she's never met, her
friend Natalie is convinced he's Trent Yves, egotistical
heartthrob-in-hiding. When the boy, who calls himself Luke, is nearly
eaten by a cougar, Brigitta finds herself saving his life, being swept
into his spectacular embrace and wondering if she wants Natalie's
fantasy to be true. As the two spend the summer together raising
orphaned cougar cubs, Brigitta still can't be sure of his true identity.
But then again, since her grandparents' death, her father's sudden urge
to give away all their possessions and become a shaman, and her own
awkward transition from girlhood into a young woman, she isn't sure of
anything. What is the truth? More importantly, can she accept it?
